Never thought I could, but I think I just might.
I love your master class bashing Self and KU everytime they're brought up. @Aike does a splendid job as well. Finally @silentsaregolden2.0 is up there as well. Keep up the good work gentlemen.If I had the chance, I'd throw up on Bill Self. His enabling of years of women battering by his players is a giant stain on the game of college basketball. And, of course, a Duke win helps Kentucky. So this is one of life's easier calls.
I agree with you 100%. There I said it.Whatever benefits UK the most so go Duke
Since it's a regular season game, duke can't win a title, it's a regular season game, and since UK beat duke, I hope they smack KU by 10. I want KU fans to wonder how UK beat duke.The all time win total doesnt mean as much to me as the number of Championships. So for this reason I will pull for Kansas as Duke is closer in titles. I do not want to see any momentum for Duke going forward. Screw them. I hate them.
Best reply in the thread!Since it's a regular season game, duke can't win a title, it's a regular season game, and since UK beat duke, I hope they smack KU by 10. I want KU fans to wonder how UK beat duke.
This will bring UK's metrics up. So UK will be using duke like the tool they are.
Then, I hope duke gets upset by buttcrack state in round 1 of the NCAAT.
Voila, Best of both worlds.
my sentiment exactlyI'm against KU rather than for Duke because of all time wins totals.
Me too! Need to build a large gap. Cal gave our big gap awayI'm against KU rather than for Duke because of all time wins totals.
This.I'm against KU rather than for Duke because of all time wins totals.
I dunno man. KU is very overrated. Duke is liable to whip them. Not by 20 or anything but it wouldn't surprise me to see them win by 10 or so and be in control the whole game.I'm going to watch what will likely be a really good college basketball game.
May Duke win by 100.
We already beat Duke this year, they can go undefeated in the regular season for all I care.
I think Kansas may be the bigger threat to us in the post K years.
I think you missed my point or I didn't explain it well. I dont want Duke to win as the more of these top games they win means they are a legit contender and I do not want them to be a legit contender because they are so close to us in titles. Same goes for UNCSince it's a regular season game, duke can't win a title, it's a regular season game, and since UK beat duke, I hope they smack KU by 10. I want KU fans to wonder how UK beat duke.

This is the correct answer IMONot rooting for either. Idc who wins.
No I got it, did you see my scenario? One of these teams is going to win that game and since Kansas is gaining on us in all time wins and we are ranked ahead of duke and duke is now working for us (metrics), we should want duke to win this one. Duke's metrics go up and so will ours.I think you missed my point or I didn't explain it well.

I get your point but I really could care less about the all time wins lead. Kansas has been playing ball longer than UK so our Winning Percentage all time is better. I care more about titles. That is the overall true measuring stick of who is the best program of all time. The others matter too but not as much as titles. Just my opinion.No I got it, did you see my scenario?

But, once the NCAAT starts and duke has feasted on the weak ACC, I want them to lose right off the bat. That would be the best case scenario for us.
I wouldn't mind seeing Kansas get Saint Petered too.
I totally get that.I get your point but I really could care less about the all time wins lead. Kansas has been playing ball longer than UK so our Winning Percentage all time is better.

Not to mention Tom Izzo, man will never retire it seems, however he appears to be fading, but usually his teams are ACTUALLY built for March.I disagree. KU isn't all that right now. They've looked very underwhelming. Duke looked VERY strong and we beat them. By ystar's end Duke will be an insane threat. Self didn't recruit too hot this past season it seems. He could be waning. He and Cal are really (and maybe Few) are really the last old guards left.
Also, I will root for a power outage. I can't stand either team. Ever....in any situation.
